our story
Nelson Mandela said:
“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world. The power of education extends beyond the development of skills we need for economic success - it heals.”
Aim Higher in Education Incorporated (AHIE) was founded in 2009 to inspire like minded “friends” to collaborate on non-traditional education projects in a holistic, inclusive and empowering community.
The unique background of our members enables us to support diverse vocations, cultures and communities ….. especially those that face barriers to education on a daily basis.
This is why our mission is to reach higher -- AIM HIGHER IN EDUCATION. Creating educational environments defined by knowledge-based activities that develop and demonstrate the value of education, cultural awareness and community service is our driving force.
We have started projects in West Africa (Burkina Faso), Winston-Salem, NC, and Murrieta, CA and will continue to expand and push the limits of our minds.
AHIE's mission is to engage partners across diverse learning environments by conducting knowledge-based activities, building cultural awareness, and advocating for community service and education.
